Help, Unknown Killer by swankylay(op): 7:40am On Jul 06, 2016
Good morning NLs. It's hightime I took this issue to my fellow poultry farmers. I'm into layers actually. They are in a battery cage of 3 to 4 per cell. Well spaced and in a proper building well covered. Just few outlets. Rats (black ń few whites) N lizards v been seen regularly. Recently, I do wake up to meet a dead eaten (intestine N flesh) birds every other day. I've lost like 10 to this unknown killer. I've covered and blocked all possible holes for rats to enter. Even fumigated and bought rat poison. But this unknown killer is still very much around. Pls what could be killing and eating my birds. Edakun E gbami. Make this dream N passion no die.

Add a CCTV of if you have a dog keep it inside the house wherever u kept the battery cage so they. signal u if there is any intruder.
